I watched the video until the very end because I thought they were going to reveal the controller was actually borrowed for this video only and they would return it after. But, no, they actually spent 69k on a solid gold Xbox controller! Jesus H. Roosevelt Christ! This is nerdiness on another level! I'm with Yvonne, melt it and use the money for something else.

In the past money was a representation of a real quantity of gold. When this controller get melted all the golden foil shirts will loose its real value becoming useless.

Why melt it? It's an investment. See it from an investment viewpoint. Gold price is not going down. You can later sell this for like tripple the price when gold price is high. Plus I bet some collector would pay more for just the controller alone.

His wife is on to something though. While it would be cool to keep, if they sold the controller itself, they could probably get even more off of it than if they melted it. Molded gold like that, with all the man hours, should be worth more than just reselling the bar

It doesn't really lose value so keep it until the novelty wears off and then melt it and sell it, or just sell it as it is. There must be someone somewhere who is willing to pay a decent price for it.
